Short answer is “yes”. It’s the same way a homeowner can be responsible if they negligently leave some issues on their property and a person falls to their death.
The ultimate responsibility is the person behind the wheel.
That said, I’d argue Tesla is also liable. To what extent I don’t know, but it was clearly a contributing factor.
